Aaron Siri: The One Product You Can't Sue in America (opens the original)
Read excerpt
"People say 'I believe in vaccines.' Nobody says that about seatbelts." Aaron Siri is the managing partner of Siri & Glimstad and, by most measures, the most consequential vaccine litigator in America. He's the attorney behind the famous nine-hour deposition of Dr. Stanley Plotkin β the man they call the godfather of vaccines β lead counsel for the Informed Consent Action Network (ICAN), a 2025 Senate witness, and a central legal figure in the RFK-era reshaping of federal vaccine policy. His new
Hodlonaut: The Fight for Bitcoin β Bitcoin Core, the Capture Series & BIP-110 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
"We need Bitcoiners to fight for Bitcoin. If no one fights for Bitcoin, Bitcoin will very soon be dead." Hodlonaut is a Bitcoin citizen journalist, the founder of the Citadel21 zine, the man behind the 2019 Lightning Torch, and the person who told the simple truth about Craig Wright and then stood in the fire for five years over it.

Read excerpt
"Most of the money problems we talk about with Bitcoin β they're not money problems. They're time problems." Scott Dedels β founder of Block Rewards and author of The Age of Time β says the clock is a technology. It was invented about 600 years ago, and somewhere along the way we forgot it was ever invented at all. His claim: the problem of time is upstream of the problem of money. Fiat was downstream of a civilization that had already agreed to be ruled by a machine that only moves forward, in
Bitcoin Mechanic β The Soul of Bitcoin (BIP110) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
"21 million isn't a promise. It's a rule β and rules only hold if your node enforces them." Bitcoin Mechanic β of mining pool OCEAN β says Bitcoin is in a civil war, and most holders don't even know it's happening. The fight isn't over price. It's over who's actually in charge: Core or Knots, miners or developers β or the nodes that quietly outvote them all. We get into the Eye of Sauron turning toward Bitcoin, why 21 million is a rule and not a law of nature, what running Knots actually does, a
